Warded in TTSH: Day 06b

Just found out not too long ago that the PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) is actually scheduled for 28th Thursday and the PTC (Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography) is scheduled for the 27th Wednesday. Not sure why it is done this way and I'll be asking the doctors about it tomorrow. The PICC line is used for infusion and the PTC is for inserting the stent for the bile duct.

Again, all these means that I'll probably have to stay over the weekend to have the subsequent procedure to open up my small intestine (duodenum) done next week. I am so disappointed as this will mean longer stay in the hospital and postponement for the chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

I'm still hoping for a change and l ask that you pray with me for the change to happen so that all the procedures could be done quickly and that I can be discharged earlier and all the therapies would not be delayed further.
